    • Live Calls

    • Wallboard
      Shows one of the following (switchable via the panel's options):
      • Wallboard (default): Call, fax and email statistics for the current day in tabular form.
      • Grade of Service graph: Call, fax and email statistics for the current day in graphical form.
      • Average Times graph: Statistical details on the waiting times and talk/reading times for the queued calls, fax and email on the current day in a graphical chart.
    • Calls List
      Shows details on the previous calls, fax and email.
  5. System bar with information on the software version of myAgent.
When myAgent starts, the panels area displays the Live Calls and Wallboard panels.
You can open or close panels as you want. However, the panels area of the myAgent's main window cannot display more than two panels at a time.
If the panels area already displays two panels, then any new panel that opens in the main window of myAgent, will replace an existing panel in the panels area. The panel that is replaced is the one with the lowest display priority. The display priority of a panel is the order in which a panel's icon appears in the sidebar. The Live Calls panel has the greatest display priority and cannot be automatically replaced by another panel in the main window of myAgent.
If you want to have more than two panels open at the same time, some of them must be opened in a separate application window. By default, the Internal Directory panel, opens in a separate window. You can also pop in a panel that is currently displayed in the panels area and have it opened in a separate application window, as described in Section 13.2.

Tooltips

Tooltips are tiny windows in which myAgent displays more information on certain objects of the graphical user interface such as icons, for example. A tooltip appears when you let the mouse pointer hover over the corresponding object for some time.
